A cutting bit includes a steel body on which a carbide cutting tip is brazed. Disposed rearwardly of a rearwardmost end of the tip, on a tapered side surface of a head of the bit body is an annular ledge which extends laterally outwardly sufficiently far to deflect cuttings laterally away from the bit. The ledge can be formed integrally with the bit body as the result of a machining operation, or the ledge can comprise a split ring that is elastically held in a groove formed in the tapered side surface. The ledge extends perpendicularly to a center axis of the bit, or is inclined slightly forwardly, in order to trap cuttings, such as asphalt, to cause a protective ring of asphalt to be formed in front of the ledge.
